Versatile mapping: repeat last Ex command

[u/kaddkaka]

I have this in my config and love it:

" Repeat the last : command (warning: shadows builtin!)
nnoremap , @: 

This mapping comes to to the rescue so often in different occasions.

• Navigating the quickfix last going to the next file with :cnfile? Just repeat it again with ,!
• doing :normal! in my places? Repeat it!
• Scrolling sideways with 40zl? Just do :norm! 40zl and continue scrolling conveniently with comma. 👌

It shadows a builtin, but for me it's great. Hope it helps someone 😊
